    • Orange Banana Tropical Breeze Smoothie

      Posted at 9:01 am by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on August 22, 2013

      There’s nothing that says breakfast better than a large cup of fresh pressed OJ alongside bacon (nitrate free of course!) and eggs! I always like to add a side of kale.

      Here is a twist on the traditional glass of orange juice…still simple with an added banana coconut flavour burst and a great protein boost!

      Let this smoothie be your wake up call! Fuel your engine (or your loved one’s tummies) with this baby!

      Orange Banana Tropical Breeze Smoothie

      The Ingredients:

      • 2 oranges, peeled
      • 15 frozen banana chunks (approx 1 inch chunks)
      • 2 tbsp raw hemp protein powder (or protein powder of choice)
      • 1/4 cup calcium enriched coconut milk Continue reading →

    • Kids love Superhero Smoothies!

      Posted at 8:28 pm by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on August 18, 2013

      One way that I make healthy eating enjoyable for my little ones is to make it fun (superhero kinda fun!).  It sounds simple and it is simple!!

      Every little kid (and most daddies) love superheroes, fantasy worlds and make believe.

      Why not create an avocado, spinach, green grape Yoda Smoothie?  How about a layered Zebra Smoothie using banana and coconut as one layer with dark purple grapes and cherries as a second layer?

      For some reason, Ninja Turtle Ooze Smoothie is far more desirable to a young boy then Spinach Kale Banana Avocado Smoothie.  Little does he know, the ingredients for both are the same.

      Here is the simple recipe for Protein Papaya Mixed Berry Blast a.k.a  Prince Papaya of Berry Land

    • Coconut Protein Pancakes

      Posted at 11:40 am by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on August 12, 2013

      As a mom of two precious toddlers and a devoted wife, I take food prep seriously.  I feel a strong sense of responsibility to provide clean food that will help my children grow into strong, healthy individuals.  I also want to live a long and healthy life with my husband by my side.

      20130810-163721.jpg
      That being said,  it’s essential that I  provide optimal food fuel for my entire family.

      I plan on traveling the world one day, with my husband by my side, drinking wine in Rome, sake in Japan and climbing the hills of Scotland (I should probably start saving now).  I need us all to be healthy for years to come!! Continue reading →

    • Tropical Kiwi Berry Bliss

      Posted at 5:30 pm by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on August 5, 2013

      20130729-132928.jpg

      I was relaxing on a sandy beach, with the balmy salt breeze and sunny rays.  While listening to the sound of the waves splashing against the seacoast…

      In the near distance I see a glass bowl overflowing with luscious, juicy, vibrant berries.  I walk towards it…

      BUZZZZZ the alarm clock goes off and I’m staring up at my bedroom ceiling.

      No beach.

      No berries.

      It was all a dream.  A dream that ended one step away from tasting those delicious berries.  Don’t you just hate it when a good dream is cut short?

      That was when I decided I would depart on a mini-vacation.  There would be no passport, packing or destination required for this trip.  I would bring the tropics to me.  And of course the berries. Continue reading →

    • Frozen Banana Nut Butter Bites

      Posted at 8:08 pm by Hollie Jeakins Photography, on July 30, 2013

      20130728-094212.jpgMy hubby and 4.5 year old are constantly sniffing around the kitchen in search of “treats.”

      I’m convinced that my husband sends our little guy into the kitchen on “treat” missions.  He knows I’m a sucker for my son’s little smile and sweet “please mommy” with those big blue puppy dog eyes.

      Last week, my son came upstairs searching for something to snack on.  He asked for something yummy…like a chocolate bar…”a super treat”.

      I’ve learned that coming up with tasty and healthy treats takes some creativity.  There are many healthy options that you can make from scratch that often require minimal ingredients and time.

      “Super treats” as my son likes to say!

      Say hello to Frozen Banana Nut Butter Bites.  These babies take just five minutes to make, only require 3 healthy ingredients, and most importantly  are “super treats” approved by my son and husband.

      They are similar to an ice cream chocolate nut bar (especially in a kid’s eyes) because these bites are creamy, nutty, smooth and crunchy.  The only things missing are unhealthy ingredients, loaded refined sugar, preservatives and sensitivity triggering foods!  These are items I’m extremely happy to live without.
